Nubble Lighthouse - People

Cape Neddick Lighthouse is also called Nubble Light because it sits on a barren rocky island (the Nubble) just off shore in York, Maine.

Although you can see Nubble Light from a number of spots along the coast in York, the best up-close view is from Sohier Park. This beautiful spot 200 yards from the Nubble offers an unobstructed view with perfect photo opportunities.

You can sit on a bench and watch the ocean surge around the rocky headlands, climb over the rocks along shore, or browse in the gift shop. What you CAN'T do is actually go onto the island the lighthouse sits on.
